February 02, 2022 at 06:03AM If you’re anything like me, your wardrobe consists mostly of varying shades of black, grey, white, and beige. Neutrals are neutrals because they go with everything, and what could possibly be wrong with that? But after watching runway collections drop their previously low-key colour palettes for vibrant, saturated hues—I’m looking at you Valentino, The Row, Chanel, and Prada—I’ve begun to rethink my strict no-colour policy. And apparently, I’m not alone. On Saturday, Kendall Jenner, who is also known to frequent more muted wardrobe items, used a lunch with friend Travis Bennett as an excuse to dress outside of her comfort zone, opting to pair a marigold-coloured knit from Who What Wear favourite Frankie Shop with a highlighter-orange knit, which she wore effortlessly tossed over her shoulders. With the bold duo, which reminds me of the McDonald’s logo, she wore high-waisted, mid-wash jeans from Khaite and simple, brown…

February 02, 2022 at 06:00AM Hands up if you have been scarred by a chopstick styler? The thinnest kind of wand is the most confusing tool to use because the finished result can vary from perfect loose waves to ’70s disco hair to tight coils, and the factors that lead to the end result are vast. So that’s why, when the latest GHD drop, the Thin Wand, landed in my lap ahead of its launch, I was dubious about what the finished result was going to look like on me.Last time I used a thin wand, my hair was shoulder-length and bluntly cut. The end result was a super-voluminous lob that showcased the best bit about my natural hair: the texture. Now, though still natural, I’m currently wearing my hair straight with super-long extensions, and I was interested to see just how this type of wand…

February 02, 2022 at 06:00AM This year’s ’micro trend’ cohort can broadly be divided into two camps: On the one side there’s the artisanal charm of colourful stripes and contemporary patchworking. It’s ageless, delightfully quirky, and an aesthetic that has been embraced by countless up-and-coming designers. At the other end of the spectrum, it’s all about the noughties: We’re talking graphic letter print, sultry corset tops and a generous splash of lime green. It’s an unashamed nostalgia fest that will likely have a marmite effect on the nation’s shoppers. Of course, there are a few styles that can be found in the middle-ground—think elevated denim and pearl detailing—both of which may already be sitting in your wardrobe, but just benefit from a 2022 styling update.Whatever your chosen aesthetic, we recommend using the our micro trends edit as a roll call of ideas for elevating your wardrobe basics. Just look at Helmut Lang’s letter print mesh top, which…

February 02, 2022 at 06:00AM I was wearing a feathered tank, velvet flares and seven different variations of chunky rings when Who What Wear’s Hannah approached me with a challenge – to sartorially strip things back for a week, and document my journey.‘A maximalist, moi?’ I exclaimed. My partner guffawed, his eyes scanning my many shelves of bags, shoes and general frippery. ‘OK, so maybe I am partial to an accessory (or five),’ I conceded. ‘But how hard can this be?’ I simply needed to edit my wardrobe down to a few well-chosen pieces. And let’s face it; I was hardly devoid of choice.As I prepared a rail of monochrome separates, the reality of a week without colour, print or sequins dawned upon me. I eyed up my newly edited ‘capsule wardrobe’, including an oversized white shirt, cropped leather flares and a couple…
